Chapter 127 Unexpected Fortune



The "Chusheng" has been drifting on the sea for eighteen days. Its current location is on the east side of Luzon Island, and its latitude is near the equator. Yu Shengnan is also ready to return.

At present, the total cargo volume has been loaded with more than 140 tons, among which a lot of big-eye chubs were caught in Luzon, because a school of big-eye chubs was encountered in this sea area. Twelve nets have been pulled in this sea area, and nearly 20 tons of big-eye chubs have been caught, which can be said to be a huge profit.

Yu Shengnan made another discovery during this trip, that is, there are a lot of shrimps in this area. It’s a pity that their trawl nets are not suitable for catching shrimps, otherwise they would have made a fortune.

Although they didn't catch much, the crew members still had a feast. It can be said that this crew, even the two sailors Jiao Kegui and Meng Kechuang, rarely had the opportunity to eat seafood to their heart's content. It can be said that this voyage allowed everyone to eat seafood to their heart's content.

But it is probably just this time. Next time we go out to sea, people will not be so enthusiastic, because eating too much seafood can easily lead to high uric acid and cause gout. Now Meng Kechuang has already suggested to him that he should try not to eat seafood.

In Meng Kechuang's words, seafood is so expensive. The vegetables and meat we brought are not as expensive as seafood. Eating less seafood can help the boss make more money and keep everyone healthy, so try not to eat seafood in the future, of course, except for his favorite lobster.

"Boss, boss, there's something going on up ahead." Yu Shengnan had just finished taking a shower and was about to lie down to take a nap when Jiao Kegui called him on the intercom.

Upon hearing what happened, Yu Shengnan rushed to the cockpit.

"What's going on?"

Jiao Kegui didn't say anything, but pointed to the sea in front of him.

Yu Shengnan looked over and saw many things floating on the sea ahead.

"Keep your eyes on it and speed over there." Although the distance was a bit far and the light was against her so she couldn't see clearly what it was, Yu Shengnan felt it necessary to get closer to take a look.

"That thing over there has sunk," Jiao Kegui shouted, and the "Chusheng" had already reached the floating object.

Yu Shengnan had already gone down. He stood at the side of the boat, holding a hand-cast net. When he saw something floating, he simply raised his hand and threw the net down.

By the time Yu Shengnan had pulled it up, Zhao Lei and his team had also used their spear guns to reel in one or two boxes. The rest of the items were no longer visible on the surface; they had sunk.

The box wasn't very big, but it wasn't small either, about the size of a washing machine. Yu Shengnan felt the weight as she carried it, and it seemed to weigh around 40 to 50 kilograms.

"Open it and take a look. Could it be a letter from an enemy spy?"

"Think about it, your enemy's letter was thrown here, it's still far away from our territorial waters..."

"That's right, I forgot about that, but this can't be a bomb..." Because they have all served in the military, many of their thinking has not changed yet, and they are full of patriotic feelings when considering issues.

But obviously everyone was very curious about what was inside, Yu Shengnan was also curious, so he decided to open it directly.

The probability of a bomb is almost zero. I just saw seventeen or eighteen floating objects. How could they be bombs? However, Yu Shengnan expected there to be some weapons inside, so as to increase the defense power of the ship.

Yu Shengnan has never been a loyalist to the party and the country. He even feels that he may have some national sentiments, and patriotism also means loving the country in the sense of nation. Perhaps because he has seen too much corruption, he does not really agree with some people in his heart, especially the fact that someone as problematic as the Ni family can become a local lord. He does not agree at all in his heart, so he can only build his sense of security by himself.

"Wow, so exquisite!"

The cardboard box was easily torn after being soaked in sea water. Inside was a complete white plastic foam box. No wonder it could float on the sea. When the foam box was opened, there was another layer of sealed plastic bag packaging, and then there were very small plastic foam boxes inside. When opened, there was a very exquisite small mahogany box.

When Yu Shengnan saw the box, she knew that the things inside were not cheap. Who would use such a good box to pack cheap things? After opening it, as expected, an exquisite women's watch appeared in front of everyone.

Yu Shengnan's vision is also proven. At least all the jewelry and luxury goods that Yao Meifang moved with passed through his hands. If nothing unexpected happens, the watch in front of him must be worth at least dozens of pieces.

"So beautiful, this thing is not cheap, right?"

"It looks like a women's watch. It would be great if it was a men's watch. We can still wear it when we have a chance..."

Everyone was arguing that they had everything. Yu Shengnan counted and found that there were a total of sixty watches in the box, and the weight of them was all from the small mahogany boxes that packed them.

"Open that box and take a look," an order was given and soon the box was opened by everyone.

But this box is not filled with watches, but a box of women's bags.

Well, they are all valuable things. Yu Shengnan estimated that the two boxes of things together could be equivalent to half of the cost of his ship.

Thinking about the many boxes that had just sunk, Yu Shengnan felt her heart bleeding. If they were all fished out, they would all be mine. What a pity, they all sank.

As for why this thing was floating on the sea, they certainly didn't know. Maybe a ship had passed by before and someone on the ship threw it away on purpose, or maybe it was because no one knew about it. Anyway, they were the only ship nearby.

Yu Shengnan asked Zhao Lei to bring people to move the things to the captain's room.

"This thing is a pleasant surprise. Everyone who gets one will get a bonus of 10,000 yuan when they go back," Yu Shengnan happily gave money to everyone directly.

"One thing is, keep this a secret. Otherwise, not only will you not get the bonus, but you'll also be asked to leave the ship. Do you understand?"

"Listen to the boss's arrangements!"

The previous training was not in vain. At least this unified response was something that no ordinary fishing boat could do.

"Lao Jiao, Lao Jiao, drive straight home and pull as many nets as you can. Let's not wait any longer and go back!"

She had already made a lot of money, and now she had received such a huge unexpected windfall, so Yu Shengnan directly announced her return.

But even if you return, you don't just sail away, you still have to keep trawling, and it will take six or seven days to get back.

"Guo Zhuang, Lao Guo, please take care of the meal later. Make some good food to nourish everyone. Do you have any pig's trotters left? Prepare some for everyone!"

The boss was happy and gave everyone extra food.

In fact, Yu Shengnan has not yet adapted to his current identity. Take this ship for example. The cost of replenishing supplies and fuel before departure for a trip to the sea is about one million.

A large ship usually returns to port once every two months after going out to sea. Previously, the Pineapple and the Lookout happened to return to port at that time. Every month, a large ship would dock to supply seafood to the big restaurants in half of the district. The two-month profit was between 150 and 300.

So if Yu Shengnan hadn't had any unexpected wealth this time, his income would have been normal. Of course, he took less time because he was lucky and encountered a school of fish.
